All invasion weapons will be Bind-On-Pickup, except for Glaive des défunts, which will be Bind-On-Account.The weapons will drop based on loot specialization - therefore only certain weapons will drop for a specific character.

When are the invasions coming?

The Legion invasions (and Chasseur de démons early access) arrived August 9, 2016 (US) and August 10, 2016 (EU). The will continue until August 30, 2016 when Legion launches, and will progressively become more frequent until that point.

Wowhead has made a video outlining all of the weapon models - see it here.The order of weapons shown is: 2H Sword, Dagger (0:15), 1H Axes (0:29), 1H Maces (1:25), 1H Swords (1:57), Polearm (2:24), Staves (2:39), 2H Mace (3:12), Bow (3:24), Wand (3:40), Warglaive (3:54). Note that some of these models are for weapon variations that were not ultimately implemented.

Invasion Scenarios

There will be 6 different invasion events during the pre-launch patch. After the invasions start, they will become more and more frequent as we get closer to the launch of the expansion (August 30, 2016). Each invasion is a scenario entered by anyone that moves into the invasion area, and has 4 stages. There is a progress bar for Stages 1 and 3 which is zone-wide - you will see how close you are to the next stage. Stage 2 and 4 have boss objectives, and completing these will complete the stage.Note that the invasion instance you enter may already be in progress, with potentially a stage or stages completed already.The stages are below:

Stage 1 - Defend against a general invasion point (e.g. Orgrimmar Rear Gate). Mobs are fairly trivial in nature, although numerous.

Stage 2 - Defeat two lieutenants and a commander. The commander spawns after the lieutenants are killed. These bosses hit pretty hard, so DPS and healers have to watch threat.

Stage 3 - Defeat the invading forces marked on the map - a zone-wide objective, with various activities that will advance the progress bar:

There are mobs to kill, of various sizes and strengths. These can be found at invasion points, marked on the map.

There are protected "Legion Structures" also marked on the map. You must kill the mobs protecting the structures; doing so will make the Gangrecristal protégés attackable. When the crystals are destroyed, the structure collapses.

There are various mini bosses scattered around the zone during this phase. These hit pretty hard, so ideally they need to be tanked or kited. These mini bosses often drop Éclat de Néants, so it's worthwhile helping to kill them! They are marked on the map with skulls.

Stage 4 - Defeat a boss NPC at the original invasion point (requires a group). These bosses hit VERY hard and have some abilities that will kill you if you do not avoid them (e.g. breath mechanics - make sure to stand behind the boss!)

Some other miscellaneous notes:

Zones that have active invasions are marked very clearly on the world map. Note that only zones in Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms are involved.

Mousing over the invasion icon will show you a timer, indicating how much time is left in the invasion, so that you can get there.

Entering a zone with an active invasion will put you into a scenario instance. There will be multiple instances going on at one time, so arriving at any point while the invasion is active will allow you to participate.There are various vehicles you can use to assist you during the invasion (e.g. Demolishers, Glaives). These usually have a few abilities that will do area damage to mobs.Most of the mobs killed for the invasions do not drop anything, although minibosses do. The shards/chests that are rewarded go into your bags automatically (even if you are dead when the appropriate stage is completed).

Stage 3 - 10 Éclat de Néant at the end of the stage. Additionally, mini-bosses during this stage drop Éclat de Néants (reportedly 5-15). Therefore, killing these can net you a much higher yield than any other stage!

*This armor is the same armor that makes up the 4 transmog armor ensembles available for 200 Éclat de Néant. If you are wanting only the transmog appearances and not the gear, collecting it piece-by-piece from these chests will be presumably much slower than buying the Ensemble.**These weapons can be upgraded to iLevel 725 using Énergie gangrenée amalgamée, which will also be available during the pre-launch event

The above achievements will be Feats of Strength (similar to Trouver la faille from the Cataclysm pre-expansion event) that will not be obtainable after Legion launches.

Another Feat of Strength that will be exclusively available during the Legion pre-launch event is Ah, je comprends mieux ! (collect all 12 of the pamphlets from Doomsayer NPCs in Orgrimmar/Stormwind).

Commentaire de Nulgar

Is it just me, or does the staff's head kinda look like a closed hand, with one finger raised?

Commentaire de Urof

Does this even drop?

All I'm getting are 1H maces on my casters and those are useless since there's no OH items available.

Commentaire de Aydwen

Can anyone please confirm that this actually drops? And if so one what class/spec. I have gotten over 40 boxes between my 2 Mages, Boomkin, Spriest. I've gotten the 2 wands, 1 1h int mace, and 1 1h int sword. But not a single staff. Thank you in advance.

Edit: These are the only weapons out of the initial 20 listed that actually made it into the game.

Commentaire de Faell

For those farming tmog, keep in mind this does have the exact same model as the horde staff from the Broken Shores scenario.

Commentaire de Deadly1Elixir

One of two items from the invasion event I'm not in a rush to get, the other being the Wrathguard Shortblade. Since it is the same model as the one given from the Broken Shore quest.

Somewhat annoyed that Blizzard didn't try.

-Edit-

It is worth getting on your alliance toon, this model copied the reward from horde, not alliance. Alliance can't use the horde transmogs. So if you have an alliance character you want the red staff on, get this.

Commentaire de Sapheyre

Had a guild member get the staff on their Ele. Shaman so I can confirm it does drop in game.

Commentaire de Buhh

Has any mages gotten this? I tried different loot specs, still only got the wand

Commentaire de VijoPlaysOnYT

I created a video showcasing how you can obtain the weapons specifically, since each of them is bound to a spec.

Commentaire de geekygirlish

Have now looted 5 wands! I have all the cloth armour, but I'd like this staff. Only one person saying "they know a guy" who got this. Has anyone else of any class looted this?

Commentaire de 13vocals

So if there's no staff, why is there no offhand?

Commentaire de otwyxo

So between all my toons I have ten chances per 4 hour reset to get this staff and believe me i use them all. However I began to get suspicious when after the 40th or so time this staff did not drop. I went to the appearance tab and did a search for it but did not find it. I can only assume that this item does not drop in the live version of the game.

Commentaire de Shibang909

Actively running invasions on a Warlock and my Mage, and occasionally on a mid-70's Priest. No staff yet. I've gotten the caster mace. A couple wands. Three swords. No staff.

If it's really deprecated AND Blizzard neglected to include a caster offhand and tank/caster shield, that's some serious bs.

Commentaire de TonyB500

I've gotten the wand a couple times, the mace a couple times, the warglaive once, and Coalesced Fel three times...but no staff. :(

Has ANYONE actually seen this staff drop for them? Just so I at least know if it's just really crap luck or possibly a developmental screw-up.

Commentaire de Owly

If you look at the same appearance tab you find the same staff appearance is a quest reward for the horde part of the broken shore scenario, it was said on the forum though this weapon was datamined as level700 version it supposedly has not made it to the live servers.... but I have no confimation for or against this statement....

As for collecting the appearance you need a horde caster char do the broken shore scenario....

Commentaire de Melesande

I am guessing this didn't go live. It doesn't exist in the collection tab.

Commentaire de iriecolorado

Received confirmation today from a GM that this item was indeed deliberately removed before the invasions and there are no plans to make it available.

Commentaire de Sandfur

it could be that it's not dropping because of the typo in the name.Staff of the Inquisiton

Commentaire de Lughnasadh

This is Game Master Thraildtia reporting in! Everyone seems to call me Tia for short, though.

Thanks for following up with us here at Blizzard Entertainment's Customer Support Center about the petitioned issue. Just so we're on the same page, it looks like the Staff of Inquisition is not dropping from the Legion Invasion event. Well, let's see what we can find!

After doing a heavy dose of research, I was able to pick something up. As it stands, we have gotten several reports about the Staff of Inquisition and how it's nowhere to be found. We were able to confirm that this is actually a bug and is being worked on by our QA and Development Staff as we speak. What I highly recommend is to Submit a Bug Report (https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/4300043), that way your report gets added to the list of other reports regarding this issue; speeding up the process bit by bit. However, other than this, we have no other information regarding this issue.

CONFIRMED FROM BLIZZARD THE STAFF DOES DROP: They said if you are not getting it to submit a in-game bug or ticket.

"This is Game Master Valaladur the "Impalalaer" here again to go over what we have talked about today in our chat! :D

Today we talked about the Staff of the Inquisition not dropping for you and some other people! We will push this up on our end and you should do the same with the in-game feature!

It was a pleasure being able to chat with you today! :)

Again, thank you for contacting us here at Blizzard Entertainment! If you need anymore help or need assistance, please feel free to contact us again! Farewell and have a magnificent day!"

Commentaire de seriphe

I got the staff for doing the scenario on my blood elf warlock. Was it supposed to drop from the invasions?

Commentaire de Spiralmind

Anyone else notice that the Wowhead entry for this is spelled wrong?

Commentaire de Reddervish

Anyone who talks to Blizzard about this, and if they say it does drop. please ask them what specs it drops for, presuming I can respec. for a warlock (who has always used staffs and would want to continue to) because I only want a 2H intellect weapon.

Edit. My warlock just had a 2nd Eredar Battle Blade drop. I'm going to stop doing invasions on this alt until the issue of not dropping a usable weapon is resolved.

Commentaire de itsMATTohNO

Everyone expected the Staff of the Inquisition.

Maybe it will only show up when no one expects it?

Commentaire de Lfgrichard

Legend says its dropped once... to a warrior...Guys for real... i got all of the loots a hundred times... but what about with this staff? Never dropped...

Commentaire de Bigman1182

DOES NOT DROP FROM LOOTBOXES!

After farming for days, decided to check with the GMs. This was their response:

Hey there! :)

I hope this message finds you well, despite how long it's taken me to get back to you on this!

The Fel staff does not drop from the lootboxes from the Invasions.

I hope that this response has resolved your petition! If it hasn't, feel free to select Need More Help. Be sure to provide as much information about what is going on as possible. :)

I have asked where it comes from, and will update when ever they get back to me :)

Commentaire de awoody17

Legend has it this item was far more powerful than intended and killed Kenny, the new intern at Blizzard. It was removed from the database, sealed away on a flash drive and is now dubbed "The Staff of a Thousand Truths".

Commentaire de Rassy

I tried to read all the comments but i didn't get to them all, but I am very confused because i am reading some stuff with screen shots of GMs saying the staff was removed and is not in game, and other posts saying it is some sort of bug and it does drop. I was looking to get this on my S priest but many many many boxes, armor, and coalesced fel later, still no staff, but I did however get the wand on both my priest and my warlock. So I opened a ticket to try and see if a GM could confirm anything about the staff... and here is what I was told on 8/16/16 I marked the section where he confirmed to me not only was it in game, but one of his friends had "gotten the staff just last night" for his toon "so they are in there for sure"
